Look up Tundra on this Forum, also their are Tundra Forums with a great deal of information. Taking truck and trailer to a weight scale as I have done will give you the information you need to know on how safe the truck and trailer are on the road. Below is what I found for my combination: My Tundra is a 2012 Twdr, 4.6V8 with tow package, rated at 8,200 towing and 14,000 Gross Combined Weight Rating (Truck & Trailer Max). My TT shows a max weight of 7,200. You want to find your pin rating for your 5th wheel and max weight your truck can carry to see how much weight is left for what you are going to put in truck.
As far as the Tundra as a tow truck wife and I love the truck, it does a great job, comfortable on the freeway, climbs hills with no problem and is an easy truck to use on a day to day bases.
